Chapter 37: Hongmen Banquet

After dealing with the funeral of Hong Nantian, Deng Long took a good rest in the detective agency for a while. He had performed the Maoshan technique several times recently, but he had not been able to recover his spirit properly. If this continues, his body will not be able to bear it. The detective agency has already

After being renovated and tidied up, Deng Long returned to the detective station. Ma Tiexin was busy tidying up with his bare arms. The green dragon tattoo on his body was soaked in sweat and he was flexing his teeth. It was very expressive.

Thinking of Ma Tiexin's extraordinary skills last time, Deng Long couldn't help but look at Ma Tiexin in a different light. He originally thought that Ma Tiexin turned to him because he was forced by Zhonghe Tang Pang Wei, but now it seems that he is not a person with such good skills.

It is indeed a bit unbelievable to sort out documents for him at the detective station, but Deng Long would not doubt Ma Tiexin's intentions for him. Ma Tiexin would risk his life for his brothers. Maybe Ma Tiexin is just tired of the turmoil in life.

The detective's office takes advantage of the trouble!

Thinking of this, Deng Long laughed, very tiredly! "Old Ma! You are about to become a housekeeper, but I don't have the money to double the salary!" Deng Long greeted Ma Tiexin who lowered his head to clean up the information.

"Oh! Xiaolong is back! Haha, money is of little use to me, food is enough! By the way, Xiaolong, why are you looking so pale!" Ma Tiexin smiled and raised his head and said. When he saw Deng Long, he was full of joy.

Ma Tiexin was very surprised by his haggard face.

"Brother Hong is gone. Shanghai Beach has lost a hero. I feel a little sad! It's okay! You are busy, old Ma. I'll go take a rest!" Deng Long sighed and said to Ma Tiexin, and Hong unconsciously appeared in front of his eyes.

Nan Tian rushed to the Hongkou Dojo in a domineering manner, faced the Japanese army's steel guns, and rebuked Yamamoto in public, showing his heroic spirit without changing his face!

Deng Long shook his head and sighed. After finishing this matter, he will go to the underworld to see Brother Hong! Deng Long sat cross-legged on the bed and closed his eyes to start to recover his energy. In fact, Maoshan Shu also has its own unique method of luck. Deng Long has been there since he was a child.

When practicing martial arts, one has a very deep foundation of internal strength and can recover very quickly.

After meditating for a while, Deng Long felt that his energy had recovered a lot. He took out "Maoshan Conquering Demons" from under the bed and read it carefully. He still hadn't seen the mysterious Master Ku Long.

This great head-bending master has so many tricks. If Wang Daquan hadn’t come to tip off the kid last time, he might have fallen into trouble. Chinese Taoism and Nanyang’s head-bending skills rarely communicate.

There is no information about the head-lowering technique in the Records.

However, Deng Long felt that judging from what happened to the little ghost last time, the head-lowering technique is similar to the voodoo technique in the Miao territory of China. It relies on some creatures to improve one's own cultivation, rather than focusing on individuals like Chinese Taoism.

Taoism and practice

"Xiaolong! I have a call for you!" Ma Tiexin knocked on the door and called softly. Most of Deng Long was sleeping at this time. If the phone wasn't very important, Ma Tiexin wouldn't have knocked on the door to disturb him.

Deng Long walked out of the room with a smile on his face. The tired look on his face was wiped away, and he regained his previous confidence and smile. Ma Tiexin had to admire him. Deng Long was really unfathomable. In fact, the most important thing was Deng Long.

Long's charisma is so attractive, this is a guy that no one will hate!

Deng Long quickly walked to the phone and picked up the receiver. The voice on the other end of the phone was extremely gentle. The call was from Li Yinru.

"Deng Long, I haven't seen you for a long time. Jiale and I miss you very much. Would you like to come to the Lin Mansion to get together tonight if you are free?" Li Yinru's voice was still as gentle as before, making people unable to bear to refuse.

Deng Long thought for a while, and Li Yinru would definitely not call him rashly at this time. The last time Lin Jiale wanted to kill him, she reported to Wang Daquan and told him. In other words, this call was probably meant by Lin Jiale. The Lin family

Le naturally knew that she would reject him, so she asked Li Yinru to call him

If it was Lin Jiale's intention, Deng Long would naturally not pay attention to it. When he thought about Lin Jiale's gentle and gentle spirit, Deng Long was extremely disgusted.

Deng Long didn't answer immediately, and Li Yinru's voice came over again: "Deng Long, you don't want to come? Xiaoyun hasn't seen you yet!"

Deng Long scratched his hair. Going to the Lin Mansion was like a trap. However, the Lin Mansion had already made many phone calls to invite him, especially the kind and beautiful Mrs. Lin. It was really hard to refuse and just go. Could it be that he just went there?

You can still be afraid of Lin Jiale, even if you have to break into the dragon's den and the tiger's den,

"Well, Mrs. Lin, I will definitely come to the banquet tonight!" Thinking of this, Deng Long said firmly to Li Yinru

"Okay, this, Deng Long, be careful all the way!" Li Yinru said and hung up the phone.

Deng Long touched his nose and laughed. Mrs. Lin was different from Lin Jiale. She was kind and smart. She had changed her direction and reminded herself to be more careful.

However, Deng Long decided not to go alone, not because he was not confident in himself, but because he had to guard against Lin Jiale's insidiousness and cunning. Behind Lin Jiale was a great master, and he had never fought against a master.

Not very sure

Deng Long picked up the phone and called Li Kangkai and told Li Kangkai about Lin's appointment. Li Kangkai on the other end was very excited and tried his best to dissuade Deng Long from taking risks. Deng Long smiled and thanked Li Kangkai for his kindness.

, without further explanation, Li Kangkai has been his brother for so long, so he is very clear about his character. Once he decides something, he will never change it.

Deng Long borrowed a car from Li Kangkai, and of course the sharpshooter He Chao. He was an old acquaintance of the Lin family and was very familiar with the Lin family. If anything happened, he could take care of it.

"Old Ma! How about going to the Lin Mansion with me for a banquet tonight?" Deng Long smiled and asked Ma Tiexin

"Lin Mansion?" Ma Tiexin frowned, as if he was not very willing to go.

"What, Lao Ma, you don't want to go, oh, forget it!" Deng Long understood very well that he was now a thorn in Lin Jiale's side. This banquet would probably be a non-event, so it was understandable that Ma Tiexin didn't want to go.

of

"No! I'll go!" Ma Tiexin thought for a while and answered firmly and forcefully.

"Thank you, Brother Ma!" Deng Long glanced at Ma Tiexin movedly, and the brotherhood was evident in it. Ma Tiexin nodded firmly, walked into his bedroom, and came out holding a small crossbow with the end of the crossbow in his hand.

It exudes black light and looks like a crossbow arrow that has been tempered with poison.

When he saw the crossbow arrow in Ma Tiexin's hand, Deng Long couldn't help but think of the Nanyang assassin who assassinated him that day. He also had such a small crossbow in his hand. Ma Tiexin took the small crossbow and wiped it carefully, tried to load the crossbow arrow, and tried the accuracy.

The spring of the crossbow was stretched loudly, but it could be seen from the oily shine of the crossbow that the crossbow was well preserved. Ma Tiexin looked at Deng Long's surprise and smiled and said: "I lived in Nanyang in the early years. This thing

For me, it’s better than a gun!”

Deng Long smiled. It didn't matter to him who Ma Tiexin was. What mattered was that he was his brother. Deng Long smiled and spread his hands, expressing his understanding. Everyone has their own secrets and talents with stories.

Wonderful

The weapons Deng Long prepared were a few small flying knives and a treasured sword to ward off evil spirits. The treasured sword to ward off evil spirits had failed since it was soaked with blood by a black dog in western Hunan, but it was still a sharp weapon that could cut iron as well as mud. The most important thing was that Deng Long used

After so many years, it’s easy!

After the two prepared their weapons, they went to Wang Mazi's restaurant downstairs to have something to eat. They returned to the detective station and closed their eyes to rest and wait for He Chao's arrival.

At around 7 o'clock in the evening, with only the last ray of light left in the sun, He Chao and Li Kangkai drove to the detective station to meet Deng Long. Originally, Deng Long considered not calling Li Kangkai to come with him. After all, Zhonghe Tang is now in the spotlight.

We cannot do without capable soldiers like Li Kangkai

However, Li Kangkai insisted on coming. How could the brothers get together to break into the Dragon Pond and Tiger's Den without him? Moreover, he also swore that the safety this time would be absolutely reliable.

At this moment, Deng Long could say nothing but being moved. The brothers hugged each other and burst out laughing. What else could there be to regret about having such brothers in life?

A few people drove towards the Lin Mansion under the red sunset. Since Lin Jiale had made an explanation in advance, the car did not encounter much obstruction at the bottom of the mountain. They drove directly to the top of the mountain and stopped in front of the Lin Mansion's compound.

As soon as a few people got out of the car, the Lin Mansion immediately set off firecrackers. All the guards looked serious and stood on both sides with their heads held high, but the murderous look in their eyes betrayed them without a doubt.

Lin Jiale opened the steel door of Lin Mansion and walked out with a smile, followed by an old man in a cloak and Li Yinru who was holding a child with a bitter smile on her face.

When he saw that besides Deng Long there were several other murderous people, the smile on his face suddenly froze, but only for a moment. The old fox quickly opened his arms boldly, laughed and hugged Deng Long. Deng Long followed his

Yi Ye burst out laughing and hugged Lin Jiale

"Friends, Mr. Lin has been looking forward to the stars and the moon, and finally he has brought all of you brothers here!" Lin Jiale laughed.

Deng Long ignored Lin Jiale and just looked at Li Yinru with a smile and said: "Mrs. Lin, I'm so happy to see you!" Li Yinru hugged the child and smiled and said: "Xiaoyun, how do you miss your uncle? I guess I will be there next year.

I can call you uncle!"

Deng Long nodded, looking at Lin Jiale, his voice suddenly turned seven degrees colder, "Mr. Lin, these friends of mine are all old acquaintances, so there is no need to introduce them. If I guessed correctly, this person is from Nanyang

The great master of surrender, Master Ku Long!" Deng Long asked coldly as he looked at Master Ku Long, who was shrouded in a black cloak.

"Well, that's right. Master Ku Long is also a profound person. You can communicate with each other later. Oh, look, everyone comes into the room to chat!" Lin Jiale gave Deng Long a malicious look with a smile on his face,

Greeting everyone

Since He Tiangang resigned as the housekeeper of the Lin Mansion, the Lin Mansion has undergone great changes. The original big mahogany table in the hall has been replaced by a huge European round table, with a crystal lamp imported from abroad hanging on it. The entire hall is illuminated.

colorful

Lin Jiale walked up to the top, cleared his throat, raised his wine glass and said to everyone: "Mr. Lin is honored to invite you to the Lin Mansion as a guest. You are all welcome tonight, enjoy!"

"Mayor Lin, if my brother doesn't sit down, I won't sit down either! Is this how the Lin family treats guests?" Deng Long asked coldly to Lin Jiale, who was sitting at the top.

It turned out that only three chairs were prepared for the whole round table. Lin Jiale originally thought that Deng Long would come alone, so he was not prepared. Of course, this was also a way for him to deliberately separate Deng Long's friendship. If Deng Long sat down, the other people's

If your status is lowered, you will naturally feel unhappy.

Deng Long and Li Kangkai just stood at the table, which made Lin Jiale look stingy and ignorant of etiquette. Lin Jiale stood up and patted his forehead, bowed and smiled pretending to be apologetic: "Look at me.

Memory? I originally thought that Detective Xiaolong would come to the meeting alone, so I lost etiquette. I would like to apologize to everyone! Come, please add three sets of chairs and tableware!"

When Lin Jiale said the word "single", his eyes were full of disdain! Deng Long naturally knew what he meant by sarcasm, so he just turned around and smiled with the three brothers.

Several people sat down one after another. Deng Long and Master Ku Long sat on the left and right seats at the top. They all looked at each other with interest. Master Ku Long couldn't believe that the smiling young man in front of him was actually

The expert who summoned the Yin soldiers that night was even more cautious.

Several servants quickly put several large bowls covered with plates on the table and retreated wisely. Li Yinru did not come out to accompany them. Only Deng Long, Lin Jiale and Master Kulong were left in the hall.

"Everyone, I called you here today because I want to discuss the future of Shanghai Beach! I want to hear your opinions!" Lin Jiale raised his glass and said with a smile.

"Boss Lin, you can just discuss the future of Shanghai with the Japanese. You guys are not interested! They don't understand this either!" Li Kangkai raised his glass and answered unceremoniously.

Lin Jiale was furious, secretly thinking that these people are shameless! A trace of murderous intent flashed in his eyes, but Lin Jiale still maintained his signature smile and took a sip of the high-quality French red wine, "Okay! Then we won't talk today.

State affairs! I have recently become more interested in Taoist matters, so let’s listen to Detective Deng Long and Master Ku Long talk about their understanding of Taoist priests!”

Deng Long smiled and seemed not to have heard Lin Jiale's words. He turned around and said to the three brothers: "This red wine is quite good. You're welcome. Boss Lin has plenty at home, so feel free to drink it!"

Deng Long raised his glass to Lin Jiale, drank it down in one gulp, wiped the wine stains from the corner of his mouth and said: "Mr. Lin, we are all rough people and have no taste, so don't be offended!" Li Kangkai and others also drank heavily at each other.

Cheers, picked up the red wine from the table, poured each other and drank.

"Haha, Xiaolong is such a sweetheart, I like him very much! Come, try tonight's dishes, I specially prepared them for you!" Lin Jiale smiled and took the lead in uncovering the plate on the big bowl.

Even Deng Long and the others, who were as bold as cattle, were shocked by the scene before them. The three big bowls in front were all filled with poisonous substances, including scorpions! centipedes! green bamboo leaves! They were all living creatures. As soon as the lids were lifted, people started to eat them one after another.

The inside of the big bowl started to squirm. It smelled bad and was extremely disgusting. The last one was a little better. It was a monkey brain. The hair was not shaved, but a big hole was opened on the top of the forehead. The blood-red brain and brain marrow were extremely eye-catching.

Except for Ma Tiexin, the brothers still had a calm look on their faces. The others couldn't help but change their expressions when they saw such disgusting things. Lin Jiale naturally saw it and burst into laughter: "Guys, this is the Lin Mansion."

It’s been carefully prepared for you, and it would be a waste if you don’t eat it! These are all famous heroes in Shanghai, and they won’t be stumped by just a few plates of food!”

"Detective Xiaolong, this is a great supplement! Don't you dare to eat it!" Master Kulong, who had been silent for a long time, took off his cloak and revealed a thin face full of vicissitudes of life. He looked at Deng Long with a sarcastic look and said coldly.

"What do you mean? I'm afraid of you. It's you who dare not eat!" Li Kangkai put the wine glass on the table and suddenly became furious.

Ku Long snorted coldly, without even looking at Li Kangkai. Deng Long stretched out his hand to stop the furious Li Kangkai. He smiled and said: "Brother Li, you guys have been tired recently, eat this! Leave the rest to Ku Long and me.

Enjoyed it!”

Deng Long pushed the monkey's head with one hand, but the monkey's brain is a great tonic. It's good to give it to the brothers! Naturally, Li Kangkai and the others understood what Deng Long meant, and they were not polite. They picked up a spoon and dug into the monkey's brain.

I ate my brains and marrow with gusto.

Deng Long grabbed two scorpions with his hands and placed them on the plate in front of Master Ku Long. He smiled and said, "Master! Let's eat this. You are the elder and the master, so please go first!"

Ku Long sneered: "Then I accept your kindness!" Ku Long grabbed the scorpions and stuffed them into his mouth without hesitation, chewing them with a clicking sound, and the two scorpions were eaten without even the dregs.

left

"Detective Xiaolong! It's rude to come and go without reciprocating. I'll treat you to a snake, old man. It's very satisfying!" Ku Long grabbed a green bamboo leaf from the big bowl. Deng Long didn't hesitate and took it.

A roll of snake is stuffed directly into the mouth, and the snake's blood is everywhere when chewed. It looks extremely scary.

After Deng Long finished chewing, he took a sip of wine and ordered
